Eating

Sounds like a decent meal...and drinks (!!) Triky! I can't compete with that..a vegetable and bean chilli with boiled rice; a yoghurt and a cup of tea for us. A glass of wine shortly! 

Cold day today so the diners requested "Give us a bash at the Bangers and Mash me mother used to make" so that's what we had. Unusually for us we had pudding or dessert if you're posh. I'd cooked down a couple of Bramley apples with a slug of Remy Martins best and added a good dollop of mincemeat then cooled it overnight and had it with yoghurt and honey. Washed down with an inexpensive but tasty Merlot. 

There's a Cumberland sausage left over and I think I might just go and give it a cuddle.

A very European sounding repaste, Triky.

For us it was a vodka and coke, home made pate and toast, chilli beans and rice, home made blackberry and apple cobbler with ice cream.......plus a nice bottle of Red Bordeaux (one of our haul from France).

Heating is on and half watching the telly while playing on the iPad........ahhhh, Saturday nights! 

A sirloin steak the size of my hand with mushrooms,onion,vegetables and gravy.All from Aldi and cheap and very,very tasty.

We broke with the our Bonfire Night tradition of bangers and baked potatoes and had some M&S Moroccan style chicken with rice we'd saved in the freezer from a home made curry...followed by a banana (for me) a glass of vino plonko for OH and some fresh coffee. Slightly better tomorrow as going to a local pub for a late lunch with live band including fiddle playing by adult child. 

I had a real mans supper, Quiche! washed down with Chablis

Leftover vegetable soup from dinner (lunch) - made with all the veg left in the bottom of the fridge.

Followed by vol au vents filled with leftover spicy prawn rice.

More than one glass of G&T. In this instance - Brecon Gin. About twenty in the cupboard to choose from.

I cook main meals for farm workers during the week, plus our suppers, so at weekend I try to not bother too much. Unless of course we have visitors.
